'wrong' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'being out of it' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is present in the answer.
'it' could be 'e' ('e' can mean 'electronic' which is similar to 'IT') and 'e' is located in the answer.
'being' could be 'dr' (Dr is an example) and 'dr' is found in the leftover letters.
A single letter 'r' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'is' is the link.
